Ah yes, David Chisnall. Another Cambridge wannabe without a hope of tenure track who thinks he is cleverer than he really is and makes a bunch of trite points over and over hoping to get some attention -- not realising they've been made for over 20 years. Have an original thought David, and stop feeling smug. You're not.

I would be very interested to know what network applications show high overhead. Do you have any apps/number you could share? Does high overhead mean they are generally slower or that they consume more CPU or both? (I ask this as a researcher in computer science looking at container overheads)

Funny how your anecdotal point is just that, anecdotal. Here's another anecdotal point for you -- Pancreatic cancer (stage 2). Diagnosed on the first visit even though a private doctor had missed it previously. Surgery in less than 5 days, excellent follow-up and post-surgery care including the surgeon having a set of non-mandatory procedures approved in record time (10mins) as a preventative step towards recurrence. Two years later, cancer free with excellent reminders and follow-ups on periodic checkups.

Your experience does not dictate the system, as doesn't mine.

This is a pretty small amount for them to be squabbling. Something is afoot

So, tell us. What are your SAAS business/Apps about? (broad area)
